The dissolving process is exothermic when :

A

The energy released in solvation exceeds the energy used in breaking up solute-solute and solvent solvent interactions.

B

The energy used in solvation exceeds the enrgy released in breaking up solute-solute and solvent solvent interactions.

C

The energy released in solvation is about the same as the enrgy used in breaking up solute-solute and solvent-solvent interactions.

D

The energy used in solvation is about the same as the energy used in breaking up solute-solute and solvent-solvent interactions.
